Fw: [MC74 and Friends] My first two entries for Summer



Dear Fellows PNEH, painter, poet, art critic and friends,

Summer for me is many things, the sun, the heat, the vibrant colors of flowers in the gardens, the scent of the grass, the noises, the beach, the delicious summer fruits, people having picnic in the parks, or eating on the sidewalks at the restaurants, the daylight at 8 o'clock in the evening, etc...

But in my memory, the summers when I was a kid were also about running outdoor, climbing trees, going after the butterflies and dragonflies, despite the sun and the heat and being scolded by my parents for skipping nap time. My two entries were just attempts to capture those images.

 Goodnight from Be^n Bo*\ So^ng
MC

PS: BiTi, do we have an expense account, so I can charge Mai Han's fee of five dollars for modeling for my entry? :-)

    Me: "What time is it, God?
    God: "It's 1:00 AM"
    Me: "OMG! It'd better be good!"
    God: "Why?"
    Me: "Do you know ever since I joined PNEH I need at least 10 hours of sleep just like our co-leader Zhi Zhi?
    God: "Of course I know, I'm God, I know everything."
    Me: "What seems to be the problem, God?"
    God: "Did you see MC's most recent entries?"
    Me: "They are very nice, aren't they?"
    God: "Nice? What's the problem with you?"
    Me: "Need lot of sleep!"
    God: "They are awesome, the second entry is a masterpiece"
    Me: "I know, doesn't it look like an AHEA?
    God: "That's it, thank you!"
    Me: "I thought you knew everything"
    God: "Dung co xo la ba que!"
    Me: "God cung biet noi tieng Viet ha?
    God: "Tieng nao cung hieu het"
    Me: "God co biet an hot vit lon khong?
    God: "Sao khong?"
    Me: "Tiet canh?"
    God: "Cai gi cung choi het!"
    Me: "Weekend nay, minh di nhau nhe!"
    God: "OK"
    Me: "Bye God"

  2. Em Ci deariiiiiiiiiiiii,

    I love your collage, I thought for a moment that that's you
    gamboling in the garden. All the green contrasted by the
    colorful streamer and orange lilies and of course MH's
    modeling exude playful happiness the spirit of summer.
    Same with the dragonfly, thanks for capturing a bit of
    your summer for us.

    xos,
    BT

  5. My dear twin BiTi and TNS

    Thank you so much for your sweet comments, they made my day.
    I am glad that you like my dragonfly photo. It almost cost me my camera last weekend, when I stepped on the slippery mud because I was following the dragonflies that were flying over the lake.
